Also I haven't played much smash lately so I'm probably really bad now

YES I DID

I thought it looked like it would be pretty awesome, hope its not exclusive for the new 3DS though.

I dunno if i'm remembering correctly, but I thought that some of the characters shown looked kinda similar to some Awakening characters, maybe they have some ancestors or descendants? Might just be me though

me too

and yeah it looks awesome, kind of a East meets West thing, it looked kind of Japanese which is cool. I HOPE WE GET SOME SAMURAI BECAUSE THEY ARE THE COOLEST THINGS EVER

the blue haired girl looks kinda like Micaiah not that I've ever played Radiant Dawn (but I want to)

Aren't Myrmidons and Swordmasters kinda Samurais?

Kinda I guess, but there wasn't that much of culture to them since they were usually on their own

I thought the blue haired girl looked like a mix Lucina and Micaiah.

yeah although her hair was way lighter than Lucina's, and Micaiah's not a dancer

btw I didn't know you liked ROB :O

that's enough for today I wanna play Pokemon now :D

Yeah, but it was mostly how her hair was styled, with a middle bang thing and yellow eyes. I know Micaiah is not a dancer :p
And I think mixing Lucina and Michaiah's hair would make that light blue

Yeah ROB is pretty cool imo

yeah true they did look similar

but most likely they're not related, just considering how the Fire Emblem games tend to be disconnected

Yeah they probably aren't related

The game still look great though

yeah, I can't wait to get it

I wonder how they're gonna do avatars in this game if there are any. I hope it's back to the Fire Emblem 7 style for avatars

It seems that the avatar is some sort of lord, I think people are speculating that the silver haired guy that kinda looks like Inigo is the avatar.

There's something about it here starting at about the middle

Also why FE 7 avatar? I liked making your own avatar so I hope it're more like Awakening

Don't really like the idea of the avatar being a Lord tbh, I'll explain.

I prefer the type of self-insert avatar that was in FE7. Kind of like the Pokemon avatars. They don't talk, and they're just random people, not really special. The Awakening avatar (Robin) was very special and had a distinct personality. He/she was a good character, but not really a great avatar. So it's different.

Basically I prefer that the avatars are just random people picked up to help a Lord, rather than being the Lord themselves. If the player is the Lord he/she will have to have a ton of dialogue, being the center of the story, something I don't like the avatar to have.

I don't think that's possible though, considering all dialogue and such are completely animated. Like in FE7 it was possible because the dialogue was just mugshots and when they wanted to talk to you, they'd look directly at you. They're not really doing the first person thing anymore, so the avatar will have to have a model and participate in cutscenes etc.

I do agree with you on the avatar/lord stuff, though I'm not completely sure if the avatar actually talks. In the Nintendo Direct, Iwata says that you can make choices, including conversational choices that affect the game. If "you" is the avatar, then I think it might be like Persona 4/Q where the protagonist don't speak outside of battle, but you get to make choices of what they say. I think that the game will have more focus of dialogue on the dancer lady and the leaders of the two fighting nations.
